I’ve been excited for Dontnod’s Vampyr for some time. The prospect of a vampiric RPG where decisions matter tickles me right in the jugular. When recent previews suggested the game was half-baked, I was a little disheartened. Given the developers previous games – the middling Remember Me and the lovely Life is Strange – it was hard to gauge how good – or bad – Vampyr might end up. After reading a few reviews – I’m still not entirely sure. Opinion on the game is varied.

Sony is kicking their E3 off even earlier this year, with new announcements and details for exisiting games starting this Thursday.

Square Enix Montreal are the acclaimed developers of the GO series of puzzle games, but the shrinking premium market is forcing them to put the series on ice.

Finally breaking their silence, CI Games has confirmed that not only is Lords of the Fallen 2 still in development, but it happens to have a new partner in crime to help out with completing the sequel: Defiant, a new studio that happens to have plenty of veteran talent within its ranks.

It seems like Razer started a trend. When that company unveiled its gaming smartphone, utilising the then state of the art mobile hardware, other have started eyeing the mobile gaming market. ASUS has just jumped into that in a big, big way.

Aragami: Shadow Edition is all you could ask for and more from a game that is built on the mythology of shinobi. It may still have a few rough corners, but for a first stab on console that emphasises stealth, patience and bloody retribution? It’s a superb experience with plenty to say thanks to its included Nightfall expansion.

I really enjoyed State of Decay 2, even if it was somewhat buggy, and lacking polish. The game received a day one patch that helped, but the game was still a little on the rough side. A new 20GB patch hopes to fix that. An extensive update has effectively replaced the entire game that includes fixes to the games networking code, stability fixes, as well as numerous, welcome bug fixes.

Destiny 2 has not been nearly as successful as either Bungie or its overlords at Activision had hoped. While the core content was fun, the post-gamer…everything has been sorely lacking. While Activision and bungie have a plan for Destiny, it’s an open secret that the developer has been putting some of its resources into something new. This weekend, Bungie revealed that that something was being made in partnership with Chinese publisher Netease.
